During a hard-hitting weekend in North Platte, four people were charged with domestic assaults.

The fury started at around 2:50 p.m. Saturday, when police officers responded to the 1500 block of West First to a reported domestic disturbance. The female victim, age 43, said her domestic partner Rick Smallfoot, 48, had assaulted her.

The victim said she and Smallfoot had an argument that turned physical when he grabbed her forcefully around the neck and throat and pushed her into a chair. Officers determined there was probable cause to arrest Smallfoot for strangulation, a felony, and third degree assault – domestic, a misdemeanor. Officers picked up Smallfoot later that night at the residence, arrested him and took him to the Lincoln County Jail, Police Information Officer Rodney Brown said.

Police said the man said an argument turned physical when Herrick began hitting him in the chest, arms and face. The man said he was hurt and had a minor injury to his mouth.

Herrick was arrested for domestic assault. Police found her elsewhere, arrested her and took her to jail, Brown said.

Around 7:30 p.m., Thomas Brownell, 61, of North Platte was picked up for failure to appear on a previous third-degree assault charge. Police found him in the 800 block of N.
